1t is positively stated that NJ. v.
Miller, president of the board OF regents
cf the Brookings agricultural college,
has fled the country taking with him
So 900 Of college fluids and several
thousand dollars in funds secured from
banks by various processes. Wouldn't
it be we'll for the governor to suspend
the board Of regents and refuse TO ALLOW
any more money to be expended in
behalf OF the college? With the presi-
dent Of the Brookings board it is a
definite fact. With the Yankton board
it is only bipartisan suspicion.

In reply to paragraph in the Yank

Wilmnr and Sioux Falls would doubtless
have become the Willmar and Sioux
City. But the Sioux City boomers, with
$500 200 IN hand, were no match for the
rustlers of this city. As usual they sgot
there" and il the Herald could see the
graders at work near Sioux Falls IL
would drop the ''if" out of its railroad
vocabulary as far as concerns this city.
Sioux Falls would like to see the Mani
toba go to Yankton, and she is willing
to help do it, but these are truly times
when day is thousand years, and
when a.little sleep, little slumber and
little folding OF the hands to sleep"
make all the difference between q
honrishing city and half dead, slow
going town.
"a day is as a thousand years." It
has counted for that much in the
victory gained for Sioux Falls and
time Is fully as inexorable in our case
We cannot afford "a little sleep,
little slumber and little folding OF
hands" while matters of the highest I'M
portance are being shaped for or against
us and We have no active agency in their
shaping. A majority OF our oItizsns be-
lieve in rustlinR--in following the ex-
ample placed before us by Sioux Falls
-and there are men in our midst who are
willing and anxious to take upon them
selves the burden OF the task and have
been willing and anxious all through the
summer. The majority believe in con-
tlnual representation OF headquarters by
an active committee and believe that had
this been granted months ego affairs
wonld now be in different shape. The
people of Yankton should carefully con-
sider the utterances Of the Sioux Falls
Press. They reflect the wisdom OF sue
cesstni experience. They are more
valuable than untried theory. It is rot
yet too late to profit thereby. Bot is,
soon will be. We are satisfied our people
would rather succeed than fail. Let |
them remember then that "a little sleep,
a little slumber, little folding OF handsp
are liable to produce injuries which can
never be repaired.

Texas Workers Confident.

The re%actionary effect of the dis
graceful liquor mob In this city
which broke up Bishop Turner's
meeting, rotton-egged the speaker
and afterward rOttOn-egged the col
ner had retired, has been so strong
throughout Texas that even the Ii
quOr organs admit that nothing sc
damaging to the AUTHORIZATION
cause has yet happened in the cam
vas. The colored people particu-
larly have manifested 4 determina-
ton to resent at the polls the out
rageOus attack on Bishop Turner
The City Council has recinded it..
resolution denying the Prohibitions
lists the use of public grounds for
their meetings.
Tonight Col. w. s. Herndon of
Tyler, addressed IL big and enthusi-
astic Prohibition meeting. He
handled the hoOdlum Mayor and
Aldermen and their followers with
out gloves. The liquor men had
advertised an anti-prohibition
meeting to be held on the Main
Plaza at the same hour, but al
s"ooSh eiSS itu DllllltliG speaker
and n brass-band their demonstra-
ton was completely dwarfed by
the PROM ition gathering, Col.
Aerndon made his speech in the
Court House.
The trial of Major Callaghan and
his accomplices in the attack upon
the ProhibitiOnists is still in pro-
gress before the United States Com
missioner. The Mayor made a
ridiculous exhibition Of himself
when he was arraigned. He blul-
ted out that he didn't e why a
Democratic United States District
Attorney should come all the way
from Il distant city to prosecute Il
Democratic Mayor.
The outlook for a Prohibition vic
tory is brilliant throughout the
State. The numerous reports from
the North of the immense eXertions
being made by the liquor-dcalers
to raise money to defeat Prohibit
ton in this State only convince the
workers that their chances of sue
cess are admitted by the enemy.
The State Prohibition Committee
is now beginning careful prepura-
ton for guarding the ballot-boXes
against frauds on election day.

Selecting an Empress.
The Emperor Of China to Marry.--How tho
Wives are Selected from the Most Beau
tiful Women. An Important Event.

San Francisco, July 3.-Some
time ago the Empress Dowager of
China, who is said to be an able wo-
man, and who has rcigned as re-
gent, issued an edict through the
Picking Gdzett, that the Emperor
should marry. and set q date when
Il reception should be held to can
ditates for the high honor. Ever
since the receipt of this cdict, the
Chinese residents of this city have
specialized much on whom the
choice would fall to marry his i'm
perial majesty, Kwong Suey, "Son
of Heaven" and "Lord Of Ten Thou
sand Years." etc. News which has
been anXiously looked for was re-
ceived in this city yesterday, an
nouncing that II bride had been Sc
lected for the young emperor and
that $5,000,O00 will be expended in
the celebration of this most auspi-
cious event. When the announce
ment of when the marriage will
take place Is received here, the CHI
nese residents Will prepare for q
proper observance Of the event.
The day will be made q holiday,
the dragon flag will be fioated, leas-
ing made the order Of business, and
II procession and other exercises
will be- held. But us yet the date
of the marriage remains with the
fatcs, which the astrOlOgers of the
empire must divine.
The first ceremony Of betrothal
is the choice of the bride. \ Chi
ncsc Empress is not chosen for no
bility of family or reputation,
although generally she is taken
from the nobility. Her personal
beauty is almost exclusive require
ment. The mother Of Hen Fung,
Il former empress, kept Il fruit stall.
The emperor himself has nothing
to do with the selection Of the en-
press. One of the requirements Of
the would be bride was that she
should be of the Mongolian race,
as no other blood has been permit
ted to rule in the Chinese Empire
for $50 years.
On the appointed day the Mon
golian papas and mamas took their
fairest daughters to the empress
palace. The empress with her Ia
dies, then chose the handsomcst
virgin. She should be empress,
but the emperor is also legally on
TITLED to eight qneens. Consequent
Up eight other handsome virgins
we're chosen to fill these high OFF,
ces. The personalities of these Sc
lcctions have not reached this city
but the next mail is expected to
furnish the particulars. From all
accounts Emperor Kwong Suey is
II cOmmendable young man, and
has considerable influence with
Confucius and other gods. On May
4, for instance, he prayed for rain.
China papers relate that on May 10
1t rained. All China fell down on
its knees to express thanks for the
beneficent hearing ofKwong Sueys
petition.
Suey "a born in 1881, and was
crowned at the age Of 4. He is a
son OF the seventh brother Of the
emperor proceeding the last. 1t
is expected that after the marriage
the Empress Dowager will hand
over the reins Of government to
Suey.

shameful disiespect to the chief
executive officer of the state must
be condemned. Governor GORDON,
In the exercise of power vested in
him by the constitution, examined
the merits Of this case and came to
the conclusioa that it was worthy
OF executive clemency. Those who
engaged In this disgraceful insult
lave undoubtedly failed to injure
the character the iIlustrious COR
Don, or to reflect upon his official
integrity. Considering the fact that
there are grave doubts as to the
guilt of the condemned man, this
action of the people shows that it
is not beyond the range of possibil-
ity that some of the evidence was
trumped up. At any rate the dig
nifty of the commonwealth has not
suffered by this act of clemency.

Even Ghse New York HeruId has
been lead estray by the TIIoovCr
hubbub, and in commept ting on the
affair says, that the whites Of the
South know that the cOIOred pcO-
pie have no love for those who once
administered the lash. But fortu-
nately, the fact is different. There
may have been a time in this Sec
ton, when, under the influence and
leadership of carpet-baggcrs and
Scaaawags, the negroes mistrusted
their former masters, but ten
years Of hOme-rule and democratic
supremacy, mas removed the last
vcstage of fear on the part of the
negroes. They knowby experience
that the white mantle Southern
white man-is their best friend. In
times Of trouble they go to their
former masters; in prosperity they
receive from them encouragement.
1T is absolute folly for the North
ern press to attempt to make it APP
pear that there is anything in the
South bordering on race animOsity.
Our democratic doctrine, which is
that the most worthy shall receive
political honors, excludes the negro
from Office, but 1t is violent to pre-
sumo that because VIC refuse to be
ruled by negroes, that therefore we
hate the race. This is most en-
phatically n mistake. The white
men do not hate the negroes, and
the negroes know 1t; nor do the ne
gKoe9 hate the whites. The world
has never given an example OF two
racos having such vast differences,
morally, intellectually, socially,
living under the same government,
with political equally, who have
maintained such friendly relation
towards each other. The negroes
are dependant, and 80 long as they
recognize the whites as superior
and as friends,--so long as they are
willing to occupy the social plane
on which destiny has placed them,
they need fear nothing.
